Its Gone Missing

I think i've lost my blogging mojo. No scratch that - i know i have. Its between going back to work after the Christmas break, and starting a new business where i have to do paperwork of an evening after getting home from my other job, and a now 2 yr old who has discovered the Terrible Two's .... i'm stuffed by the end of the day and doing a blog post is the last priority.

Don't get me wrong - i still WANT to blog. I have every intention of posting and then my fingers hover over the keyboard and i find that i have nothing to write. You know except " I'm tired! " or " Cant someone else cook dinner for a change ? ". And i'm still reading all your blogs, alughing along with you, sharing your stresses, all the usual stuff. I just cant get anything to consistently onto MY page.

Maybe i need to go find myself one of those 30 day challenges, so i'm pretty much given a topic and forced to write everyday? I know when i did the Ralph Waldo Emerson challenge last year that it really renewed my passion for my blog. So - any suggestions? I dont want to do a photo challenge because the aim here is to get me writing again, so can anyone recommend a writing challenge to me? Or can anyone suggest a topic - something you want to aske me, or want hear my opinion on ( haha ) ?
Help me people!

I'll echo Good Golly Miss Holly, it happens to us all and it will pass. Not sure about the challenges, I don't really do them but I did see a "5 minute" series that a blogger I stumbled across was doing (no idea who, sorry, it was one of those jumping around following links nights). Basically they wrote whatever was in their head for 5 minutes, no more, no less. No theme, more like a stream of conciousness. It made for some pretty good posts.

Oh no! I lost my blogging mojo and the longer I wait the harder it gets to start again (I will soon though)! I love reading your blog, it is one of the first I read on my blog list so make sure you don't go AWOL permanently.

Gosh there isn't a week go by that I don't stare at the screen and wonder what Im going to write about. I worry that the little mudanitys (is that a word) of my life are so boring and uninteresting to me and the rest of the world. Im always in awe of your ability to talk about a variety of different topics. Don't stress, give it a few days, life is busy and you dont want to cause any extra stress. BUT if you want an idea how about an ABC little tidbits about yourself starting with letters of the alphabet.

I know the feeling. I lost my blogging mojo while I was away in New York in May 2010 and I still haven't gotten it back! I don't post anywhere near as much as I used to but I want to change that. Good Luck!
